The second cold snap of December, 2005, was a contributing, or secondary factor (indirect) in the death of a homeless man in the city of Milwaukee.  He was found frozen on a sidewalk in the downtown area in the early morning of December 19th.  Media news reports indicated that some water pipes (outside faucet) froze on some homes across south-central and southeast Wisconsin.  The average temperature across southern Wisconsin for the first 19 days of December, 2005, was the coldest since the cold December 1985.  Across southern Wisconsin on December 18-19, 2005, maximum air temperatures were only in the teens and lows were around zero to 5 below zero, resulting in daily means around 15 to 17 below normal.  In addition, cold temperatures occurred during the period of December 6-8, 2005, when daily means were around 20 below normal (maximum temperatures in the teens and lows of zero to 10 below zero).
